BIOS Setup Utility

This utility is a hardware configuration program built into a computer’s BIOS (Basic Input/Output System).

To activate the utility, press F2 during POST (power-on self-test) when prompted at the bottom of screen.

The default parameter of F12 Boot Menu is set to Disabled. To change the boot device without entering BIOS Setup Utility, set the parameter to Enabled.
